Tissue please...

Start with some tissue, color of your choice. Lay about 10-15 layers on top of each other and cut into a square. Any size square will do, then fold it accordian style and twist floral wire around it.

Here I ahve created a chain of tissue poms by twisting together the floral wire. You can see there are various sizes here...

Cut the ends off into any shape you desire. I do pointed, rounded, and heart shape for some variance.
Then start separating each layer of tissue...


Do each side of the tissue until all the poms are puffy


and Voila! A cheap and easy decoration!  This chain is going to be about 7 feet tall with at few brothers and sisters as well! Stay tuned!

DIY Bag Stuffing

So, I was tired of the run of the mill "Tissue Paper Stuffing" for gifts, and it just so happens that I will be meeting my cousin's wife and baby for the first time this Saturday. So what do we do? My darling sister and I run to the Target for a gift, what does the gift need? Some sort of tissue paper stuffing! I'll get my hot glue gun!
Here are the gifts, and DIY tools... Did I mention she is a girl??? AWESOME


Here is the first tee pee of tulle.

A flower in the making. Sorry Taylor Swift... you have hot glue all over your face.

Well, I burnt the crap out of my thumb so I moved to the tissue flowers, so, this will be a tissue/tulle stuffed bag!



Is it a little much? Maybe. Is it awesome? YES!
